As we stated on X, Charlie Kirk was a warrior for free speech and civil dialogue. He dedicated his life to defending the principles that unite us, even when our differences seemed sharp.
We mourn his death and are thinking of his family and friends during this difficult time.
Our National Director Gabriel Nadales recently published his thoughts on this horrific incident in the Orange County Register.
As Gabriel said in the piece; “Ultimately, what Charlie taught us is that disagreement is not division. It is an opportunity to connect, to understand, and to preserve the civic fabric of our country. Our nation will survive and thrive not by silencing each other, but by continuing to listen, challenge, and—most importantly—talking with our fellow Americans in meaningful conversation. So for the love of God — let’s keep talking.”
Violence is never the answer, and all Americans must unite around our shared values.
